A letter from Brenny & Bella!

Casa Bella was founded in the spirit of gratitude and a desire to help adults and children thrive. 

Our journey began with our own struggles as parents trying to provide food, shelter, and education to our children. We know firsthand that this is not an easy undertaking. We started our family at young age, and struggle to provide milk, diapers, and clothing to our first born; our first home was a garage for many years.

They say that “it takes a village to raise a child” and it really does! We were fortunate to have a compassionate village who bought diapers, milk, and groceries during those difficult times when we couldn’t afford it.

We knew we had to find a better solution for our children’s future, but how? We both had to work to make ends meet. Education was a luxury that we couldn’t afford.  It took many years, long working days and obstacles before our living conditions improved.  Eventually, we both return to school (one at a time) and became first generation college graduates.  

Throughout our journey we have found small ways to give back to others who are less fortunate.  Our hope for children and families is to ease the burden of food and shelter.  No child should have to choose between working to provide food for their table and learning how to multiply and divide.

Our vision is to help endless unprivileged families around the world.

We would like to invite you to be part of our village at the Casa Bella Foundation, in our efforts to the make an impact in the life of others.

With our deepest thanks,

Brenny and Nobeyba Ortega
